Gross pay is your hourly rate × regular hours, plus overtime hours × rate × 1.5, converted to your pay period. Federal income tax is estimated with the IRS 2026 percentage method for a W-4 with no extra adjustments: annual wages minus the standard deduction, taxed at the 2026 brackets. Social Security is 6.2% of wages up to $184,500, and Medicare is 1.45% (plus 0.9% above $200,000). Florida has no state income tax — it is written into the state constitution — so a Florida paycheck only has federal withholding, Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%) taken out. There are no employee-paid state disability or paid leave deductions. Reemployment (unemployment) tax is paid by employers.

Find answers to the most common questions about florida hourly paycheck calculator.
Florida has no state income tax — it is written into the state constitution — so a Florida paycheck only has federal withholding, Social Security (6.2%), and Medicare (1.45%) taken out. There are no employee-paid state disability or paid leave deductions. Reemployment (unemployment) tax is paid by employers. On top of state deductions, every worker pays federal income tax (based on your W-4), Social Security at 6.2%, and Medicare at 1.45%. For a single worker earning $25 an hour full time, total deductions come to about 15% of gross pay.
Florida's minimum wage rose to $15.00 per hour on September 30, 2026, the final step of the increases approved by voters in 2020 (it was $14.00 before that). Tipped employees must receive a cash wage of at least $11.98. Starting in 2027, the rate is adjusted for inflation each September 30.
Florida has no state overtime law, so the federal FLSA applies: 1.5× the regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek, with no daily overtime. Enter your weekly overtime hours in the calculator to include them. Under the federal "no tax on overtime" rule for 2025–2028, you may be able to deduct up to $12,500 of the extra half of your overtime pay ($25,000 if married filing jointly) on your federal return. That deduction is claimed when you file, so it does not lower the withholding shown here unless you adjust your W-4.
No. Florida's constitution bars a state personal income tax, and no Florida city or county withholds a local income tax from wages.
Working 40 hours a week at the $15.00 minimum wage is $31,200.00 a year before taxes. With no state income tax, a single filer takes home about $27,249.20 a year after federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare — $1,048.05 every two weeks. Use the calculator for your exact hours and filing status.
It uses the official 2026 withholding formulas, so for a standard W-4 with no other deductions it should be within a few dollars of your actual paycheck. Your real check will be lower if you have pre-tax deductions like 401(k) contributions or health insurance premiums (those also reduce your income tax), or extra withholding on your W-4.
